#18 - "Home Alone 2: Lost in New York" review
As the song says: "It's beginning to look a lot like...BULLSHIT..." Well, the holiday season just keeps rolling along! Mick's pick of the week is the arguably overrated sequel to Home Alone. It's got all the holiday spices: near-fatal injuries, capitalist propaganda, a horde of pigeons, an…

-
#13 - "Gretel & Hansel" review
"Come children, and listen. For the story I tell holds a lesson..." Ed & Mick venture into the deepest wood, and they find is Oz Perkins' chilling 3rd feature. It's got feminist themes, dodgy accents, and the poor-man's Idris Elba...
-
#12 - "Color Out Of Space" review
"It's just a color. But it burns..." Ed and Mick explore the fantastical insanity that is Richard Stanley's gonzo adaptation of an H.P. Lovecraft classic. It's got peak-crazy Nicolas Cage, technicolor terrors, and mutated alpacas...
-

The boys welcome our good friend Summer into the studio to discuss "Jennifer's Body," the cult classic from 2009 starring Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried. This movie has everything: girl-on-demon makeout sessions, emo-rocker Adam Brody, snappy Diablo Cody dialogue, and uber-sexist marketing...
-
#10 - "Doctor Sleep" review
This week, the guys chat about "Doctor Sleep," the movie that hardly anybody saw last year, and it's a crying shame. The long-awaited sequel to The Shining is a Kubrickian, spooky but affectionate swan-song to all things Overlook. We discuss Mike Flanagan's legacy as a Master of Horror, the…
more -
#9 - "Uncut Gems" review
Ed and Mick discuss the latest Adam Sandler joint, Uncut Gems; a cinematic argument of the need for Adderall. We plunge into the anxiety-inducing kaleidoscope of Sandler's balls-to-the-wall performance, frenetic editing, Jewish stereotypes(?), and butt tattoos...
-

#7 - "The Shining" review - *late upload*
Ed and Mick have reached the maze...and lived to tell about it. Come on you guys, it's The Shining! It's arguably the most famous horror movie of all time; you all know what you're in for.

#6 - "Joker" review
Aaaand heeerre weeee...go. Ed & Mick discuss one of the most talked-about and controversial films of the year: Todd Phillips' Joker, starring Joaquin Phoenix as the title villain. Is it as incendiary as everyone says? Inquire within: we talk about the character's history, some eyebrow-raising...
-
#5 - "It: Chapter Two" review

This week, we watched "Ready Or Not", the latest horror/thriller/black comedy with a hint of biting satire. Is this a gory blast in the tradition of "The Evil Dead", or does it leave something to be desired? (review starts at about 18 mins, spoilers after 44 mins.)
